Season 1 winner, fiddygent, won the 3rd game of the season and is close to catching up with overall leader hip_young_gunslinger, who is the only player with multiple Champions League finishes. The winner of v1, wonton, and the winner of v2, Le-Roy, are both in The Championship.

How to play:

PM me with a request for the questions, and I will send you them. You then PM me back your answers. All you have to do is guess what the most popular answer to all the questions will be. You get the same number of points per question as the total number of people who gave the same answer as you. For example if the question is "something you spread" and 90 people including you said "butter" you would get 90 points.

You should format the PM with your answers as follows:

Answer one
Answer two
Answer three
etc...

There should be no numbers (also DO NOT write "answer one", "answer two" etc next to your answers), and PLEASE DO NOT include the questions with your answers. All I basically want is your answers (concisely put), nothing else. Also REMEMBER TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS (there should be 15, count them before you send them in)!

If a question has a possible answer followed by = 0 in brackets, that means that regardless of the number of people who gave that answer you would be awarded 0 points if you gave it. Basically, do not give that answer!

ALSO, DO NOT DISCUSS THE QUESTIONS OR YOUR ANSWERS! DOING SO MAY RESULT IN BEING BANNED FROM THE QUIZ. AND GOOGLING/LOOKING THINGS UP IS NORMALLY CONSIDERED CHEATING.

I didn't want to change scoring systems but the old system didn't work
with a changing number of players. This new system is adaptable to that, and is also fairer in my opinion. The bonus point for each game played has been scrapped.
How it works:
You are assigned a score between 0 and 200 in proportion with where you finished in the end of quiz league table.
The first player receives a bonus of 15% of the number of players in that quiz, the 2nd-4th receive a bonus of 5% of the number of players in that quiz.
Your scores across all the quizzes you have participated in are averaged.
You need to have played at least half the quizzes (so in the leaderboard above you need to have played at least 2 out of the 3 quizzes there have been so far).

Everyone who enters this week, as well as everyone on the leaderboard will be entered into the Shield, starting with next week's V5 quiz. The top X amount of the players on the overall leaderboard will be given byes (X will be determined when we find out how many players are in contention).

is a type of weldINg that uses a weldINg power supply to create an electric arc between an electrode and the base material to melt the metals at the weldINg poINt. They can use either direct (DC) or alternatINg (AC) current, and consumable or non-consumable electrodes. The weldINg region is usually protected by some type of shieldINg gas, vapor, and/or slag.
